So I just bought a mishimoto 3 row aluminum radiator from Americanmuscle. Got it installed and was putting everything back together when I discovered that if I lined the top part of the stock fan shroud up with the mounting holes on the top of the radiator then the bottom slots wouldn't line up with the holes at the bottom of the radiator. So I bolted the top part of the shroud down and rigged up some zip ties at the bottom for the time being and took her for a spin. I'm very happy with the radiator, has the car running much cooler, but I'm really uncertain about my zip-tie job. The fan is very close, probably less than half an inch from making contact with the shroud. I'm thinking about purchasing an electric fan and shroud but so far all of the ones I've seen don't seem to have mounting points for my coolant reservoir. I was wanting to get http://www.americanmuscle.com/mishim...lfan-7993.html or http://www.americanmuscle.com/mishim...iator-fan.html. But like I said, I don't see how I can bolt my coolant reservoir up to those. Any ideas?

i had the same problem, i went with the mishimoto dual fans and the aluminum shroud. all i did was get a longer piece of rubber hosing and i mounted an overflow tank in my fender. i just got an aftermarket one from jegs for $50 cause its easier to fit than the stock one

Thanks man. That's probably what I'll be doing. How did you mount the overflow tank? Did you have to fabricate any brackets?
